Events Upgrade

Step 1: Record Your Current Package Version Edit section

​Prior to upgrading, you'll need to find and record your currently installed version:

  1. Navigate to Setup > Installed Packages.
  2. Search for TargetX_Eventsb.
  3. Record the version number.
    • If your current version is 2511.4, you're using the most recent package and do not need to continue to Step 2. Instead, proceed to the Permission Scanner Upgrade.

Step 2: Install the Upgraded Package

This is your "ending version" (i.e., the version you want to upgrade to). You can select any version that's higher than your current package version. Packages are cumulative, meaning the upgraded package you select includes all features from previous packages. For example, if you're upgrading from Package A to Package D, that package includes all features from Packages B and C. 

  1. Navigate to TargetX Recruitment Suite: Admin Group to select and obtain the upgraded package. 
  2. Choose "Install for Admins Only.
    • Remember to update the appropriate Profiles and Permission Sets if additional security is required.

Step 3 - Complete Additional Configurations

After installing the upgraded package (i.e., the ending version), you must complete additional configuration steps to ensure all functionality is available. Use the following chart to complete the additional configurations. Identify your starting package and your ending package, then complete all configurations steps in between. For example, if your starting version is xxxx.1 and you're upgrading to xxxx.4, you'll need to complete all configuration steps for xxxx.2, xxxx.3, and xxxx.4.

Starting Version

This is the version you currently have installed, as Identified in Step 1.

Ending Version

This is the upgrade you are installing, as selected in Step 2.  

Configuration Steps by Release

These are the steps you need to complete, from the starting version to the ending version. For example, if your starting version is 2205.0 (May '22) and you're upgrading to 2208.6 (August '22), you'll need to complete the configuration steps for 2206.3 (June '22), 2207.0 (July '22), and 2208.6 (August '22).
